[tintin1980]

Hello im new in Programming and i have question to users of this forum.

is there anyway to delete all files in folder via shell_exec(); or bash

if yes can anyone write example for me.

adding user via php i made code like

<? shell_exec('useradd -q -h $haslossh -n $loginssh -s /bin/none -d /home/$loginssh -m');
?>

if its wrong please correct me. thanks

Well, for deleting all of the files in a directory, I assume you mean just the files ( no directories ), and only in the current directory ( no sub-dirs ).

With bash try this on the command line:

find ./ -type f -maxdepth 1 | while read var; do rm $var; done

I don't really see anything wrong with the user addition script, but some of those programs prompt for the password automatically, so that could have unexpected results on the script. I don't often manage a lot of users so I don't know specifically, but there's probably an option to not prompt for a password ( so it would need to be set later ).

But when i want only to delete files from USER folder.

$loginssh - is the user from database $loginssh = ['loginssh']; ...
